The <dirs> list is terminated by any arbitrary option, but to be simple
when none is specified complain about -f being missing.

This adds a concise description of a tool to its usage text.
A first form of this patch was proposed by Steven Honeyman
(see http://www.spinics.net/lists/util-linux-ng/msg09994.html).

# whereis -m cal -M /usr/share/man/man1/ -f ls
cal: /usr/share/man/man1/cal.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1p/cal.1p.gz
ls: /usr/bin/ls /usr/share/man/man1/ls.1.gz
the -M also resets the search mask, so for 'ls' it returns also
binaries. That's bug. Expected result is:
# ./whereis -m cal -M /usr/share/man/man1/ -f ls
cal: /usr/share/man/man1/cal.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1p/cal.1p.gz
ls: /usr/share/man/man1/ls.1.gz
the search mask has to be sensitive only to -b -m -s options,
otherwise the semantic is pretty messy.

* use debug stuff from include/debug.h and make whereis(1) sensitive
to WHEREIS_DEBUG=0xffff mask
* fix problem with argv[] usage
# whereis -b -m -M /usr/share/man/man1 -B /usr/bin -f gcc
bin: /usr/local/bin
gcc: /usr/bin/gcc /usr/lib/gcc /usr/libexec/gcc /usr/share/man/man1/gcc.1.gz
the code ignores "-B" and /usr/bin is interpreted as search pattern,
expected result is:
# whereis -b -m -M /usr/share/man/man1 -B /usr/bin -f gcc
gcc: /usr/share/man/man1/gcc.1.gz /usr/bin/gcc

Fixing plain typos, miswordings, inconsistent periods, some missing
angular brackets, and a proper pluralization (even when it involves
a constant, because for some languages the precise value matters).

* 'minor-fixes' of git://github.com/kerolasa/lelux-utiliteetit:
lscpu: avoid double free
libsmartcols: avoid variable dereference after release
libfdisk: do not do the same thing twice in single if statement
whereis: avoid printing uninitialized string
setpriv: avoid alloca() use xmalloc() instead
dmesg: avoid unnecessary variable assignment
fdisk: avoid code duplication
mkfs.cramfs: use defined failure name rather than magic value
fdformat: match variable and print format types
cfdisk: add braces to ensure operation order
lscpu: avoid use of bzero() in favor of memset()
setterm: remove unnecessary variable
cal: remove unnused structure and definition
textual: fix some typos
Running "whereis foo.bar.quux" previously resulted in
printing the "foo.bar:" pattern prefix without any
newline following it.

The MANPATH has been around long enough that it can be added to whereis
default search path.

The earlier code gave little or no change to fix bugs and improve the

Currently this tool only uses the hardcoded paths for looking up strings for
binaries, man pages and source code. Adding directories found in $PATH makes a
nice little enhancement to support a wider range of lookups.

Like most 20th century Berkeley code, it's horrible:
- declare global variables in only one place
- add static attribute where it belongs
- move funcion declarations so that it doesn't require defining them

Because findv() can do the same job find() does, we can simply remove it and
call findv() with the size of each array.
